What  Your  Dream 

Meant 

BY  MARTINI 

Author  of  Palmistry  and  How  to  Know 
Your  Future 


A  collection  of  dreams  based  on 
modern  Psychology  and  the  work- 
ings of  the  subjective  mind.  Not  a 
lot  of  stuff  drawn  from  the  imag- 
ination of  some  fantastic  mind, 
but  dreams  that  have  actually  been 
verified  in  hundreds  of  cases.  This  book  is  so 
arranged  that  when  a  dream  occurs,  it  can  be 
easily  interpreted  as  one  knows  just  where  to 
look  for  it.  With  this  wonderful  book  from  the 
pen  of  the  great  Martini,  you  can  easily  fore- 
tell your  own  future  as  any  medium.  200  large 


pages.

NOTE. — In  the  Swedish  language  there  is  no  article  "the";  but 
the  termination  of  a  noun  represents  the  article  "the."  For  instance, 
horse  is  hast;  but  "the  horse'*  is  hasten.  This  rule  applies  through- 
out. The  substantives  or  nouns  in  this  work  are  shown  with  the 
termination  or  the  equivalent  of  the  article  the.  To  obtain  the  sub- 
stantive without  the  article  it  will  only  be  necessary  to  drop  the 
termination  of  any  noun,  and  the  radical  remaining  will  express  the 
noun  without  the  article  "the." 

Example — Katten,  the  cat.  Now,  cut  ©ff  the  terminal  "en,"  and 
we  have  simply  katt,  cat.

Vowels  Are: 

a,  e,  i,  o,  u,  y,  a,  a,  6. 

They  are  pronounced  ah,  eh,  ee,  oo,  ou,  oey,  oh,  aeh,  oeh. 

a,  o,  u,  a  are  called  hard  vowels  in  comparison  with  e,  i,  y,  a,  6, 
which  are  called  soft  vowels. 

The  letters  e  and  o  designate  each  two  sounds — e  sound  as  in 
"eld"  and  a  sound  as  in  "efter,"  pronounced  after. 

O  sound  as  in  "blod"  pronounced  bloode,  and  a  sound  as  in 
"troll"  pronounced  as  in  English. 

Some  vowels  change  from  one  sound  to  another.     This  is  called 

"omljud,"  umlaut  in  German;  as  a  and  a  to  a,  o  to  o  and  u  to  y. 
Example — "fader,"  father,  plur.  fader;  "son,"  son,  plur.  "soner;" 
"ung,"  young,  "yngre,"  younger.

;  ALBERTUS  MAGNUS 
EGYPTIAN  SECRETS 

Being  the  Approved,  Verified,  Sympathe- 
tic and  Natural  or,  White  and  Black  Art 
for  Man  and  Beast.  The  book  of  Nature 
and  Hidden;  Secrets  and  Mysteries  of 
Life  Unveiled,  being  the  Forbidden 
knowledge  of  Ancient  Philosophers,  by 
the  Celebrated  Student,  Philosopher, 
Chemist,  Etc. 

Translated  from  the  German. 
Three  separate  volumes  all  bound  in  one. 

Albertus,  surnamed  Magnus,  from  the  Latinizing  of  his 
surname,  which  was  Great,  was  a  native  of  Suabia,  and  born 
in  1215.  He  was  ardently  desirous  of  acquiring  knowledge, 
and  studied  with  assiduity;  but  being  of  slow  comprehension, 
his  progress  was  not  adequate  to  his  expectations,  and,  there- 
fore, in  despair  he  resolved  to  relinquish  books,  and  bury 
himself  in  retirement.  One  night,  however,  he  saw  the  vision 
of  a  beautiful  woman,  who  accosted  him  and  inquired  the 
cause  of  his  grief.  He  replied  that  in  spite  of  all  his  efforts  to 
acquire  information,  he  feared  he  should  always  remain  ig- 
norant. "Have  you  so  little  faith,"  replied  the  lady,* "as  to 
suppose  that  your  prayers  will  not  obtain  what  you  cannot 
yourself  accomplish?"  The  young  man  prostrated  himself 
at  her  feet,  and  she  promised  all  that  he  desired,  but  added 
that  as  he  preferred  philosophy  to  theology,  he  should  lose 
his  faculties  before  his  death.  She  then  disappeared  and  the 
prediction  was  accomplished.  Albertus  became,  unwillingly, 
Bishop  of  Ratisbon,  but  he  relinquished  the  See  within  three 
years,  and  resided  chiefly  at  Cologne,  where  he  produced 
many  wonderful  works.  It  was  said  that  he  constructed  an 
automaton  which  both  walked  and  spoke,  answered  questions 
and  solved  problems  submitted  to  it.  Thomas  Aquinas,  who 
was  the  pupil  of  Albertus,  was  so  alarmed  on  seeing  this 
automaton,  which  he  conceived  to  be  the  work  of  the  devil, 
that  he  broke  it  to  pieces  and  committed  it  to  the  flames. 
When  William,  Count  of  Holland,  and  King  of  the  Romans, 
was  at  Cologne,  Albertus  invited  him  to  a  banquet,  and  prom- 
ised that  his  table  should  be  laid  out  in  the  middle  of  his 
garden,  although  it  was  then  winter,  and  severe  weather. 
William  accepted  the  invitation,  and  on  arriving  at  the  house 
of  Albertus,  was  surprised  to  find  the  temperature  of  the  air 
as  mild  as  in  summer,  and  the  banquet  laid  out  in  an  arbor 
formed  of  trees  and  shrubs  covered  with  leaves  and  flowers, 
exhaling  the  most  delicious  odors,  whicn  filled  the  whole  gar- 
den. Albertus  was  reputed  a  magician,  but  nevertheless,  after 
his  death,  which  occurred  in  1292,  in  his  seventy-seventh 
year,  he  was  canonized.  Sent  upon  receipt  of  $1.00*
